Question Why does white go yellowish??
As the weather is turning into nasty winterish, time to get the jumpers out - all were clean when packed away not that long ago heheehehe & my white jumpers/tops have turned into yellow tinged patches in places - quite a few in fact

How come & what causes it & can i get it back white again without bleach soaking as some has print on it

Like me Miss Mel you smoke.


Use poly bags to keep whites clean whilst they are in storage.

Re: Why does white go yellowish??
Try Ace in your wash........it is a bleach but it can be used on colours......failing that try Acdo Glo-white. Bicarbonate of soda in the wash is good for restoring whites too....you need a good couple of tablespoons in each load. Hope this helps.

The ancient Romans used cat urine to restore the whiteness in their togas. Try it and see.

No such thing as smoke free if you're a ciggie smoker. Sealable poly bags are the only way trust me.
